Agreement and any of its respective rights and obligations shall be freely
assignable by BioSante, but shall only be assignable by Nycomed in connection
with a merger or acquisition of Nycomed US Inc..  This Agreement shall

and assigns of BioSante, and shall be enforceable against and inure to the
benefit of the permissible successors and assigns of Nycomed.

       

      6.4 Non-Waiver and
Entirety.  Any failure of either Party to enforce any
obligations under this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such
obligations.  This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and
understanding of the Parties and supersedes all previous communication between
the Parties.

       

      6.5 Governing
Law.  This Agreement is governed by and construed in all
respects in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, USA and the
United States of America (without regard to conflicts of laws principles),
excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale
of Goods.

       

      6.6 Dispute
Resolution.

       

      6.6.1 Conciliation.  The
parties wish first to seek an amicable settlement of all disputes, controversies
or claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement by conciliation in
accordance with the UNCITRAL Conciliation Rules now in force.  If
assistance is needed in connection with the appointment of a conciliator or
other administrative matters, JAMS Endispute, Inc., shall be the institution to
render such assistance.  The language to be used in the conciliation
proceedings shall be English.

       

      6.6.2 Arbitration.  Subject
to possible court proceedings under section 6.6.4 of this Agreement, if any
conciliation proceedings under section 6.6.1 of this Agreement are
terminated in accordance with Article 15 of the UNCITRAL Conciliation Rules or
rejected in accordance with Article 2 of those Rules, without resolution of the
disputes, controversies or claims, then all said disputes, controversies or
claims shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with the UNCITRAL
Arbitration Rules now in force, as supplemented by the IBA Rules on the Taking
of Evidence in International Commercial Arbitration, as adopted June 1, 1999,
insofar as said IBA Rules are not inconsistent with the express provisions of
this Agreement.  The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings
shall be English.  There shall be three (3) arbitrators, and the
appointing authority shall be JAMS Endispute, Inc.  In rendering the
award, the arbitrator shall follow and apply the substantive laws of the State
of Illinois (without regard to conflict or choice of laws
principles).  The arbitrator shall have the authority to award
compensatory damages only, subject to the limitations described in this
Agreement.  Each Party shall pay the fees of its own attorneys,
expenses of witnesses and all other expenses and costs in connection with the
presentation of such party’s case (collectively, “Attorneys’
Fees”).  The remaining cost of the arbitration, including
without limitation, fees of the arbitrator, costs of records or transcripts and
administrative fees (collectively, “Arbitration Costs”) shall be
borne equally by the Parties.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
arbitrator in the award may apportion said Attorneys’ Fees and Arbitration Costs
pursuant to Articles 38 through 40 of the UNCITRAL Arbitration
Rules.  The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final, and
judgment may be entered in accordance with the applicable law by any court
having jurisdiction thereof.

       

      6.6.3 Confidentiality.  The
existence and resolution of any conciliation and/or arbitration shall be kept
confidential, and the Parties, the conciliator and the arbitrator shall not
disclose to any person any information about such arbitration.

       

      6.6.4 Court
Proceedings.  Section 6.6.2 of this Agreement shall not be
construed to prevent either Party from seeking injunctive relief against the
other Party from any judicial or administrative authority of competent
jurisdiction to enjoin that party from breaching this Agreement or interim
relief pending the resolution of a dispute by arbitration, pursuant to said
section 6.6.2.  Any action to confirm an arbitration award or any
other legal action related to this Agreement between the Parties may be
instituted in any court of competent jurisdiction.  BioSante and
Nycomed each waive their right to a trial by jury in any such court
proceedings.

       

      6.6.5 Location.  The
conciliation and arbitration shall be conducted in New York, New York, unless
the dispute also involves a dispute with respect to the Product between BioSante
and Antares pursuant to an agreement between BioSante and Antares, in which case
they shall be conducted in Chicago, Illinois.

       

      6.7 Severability.  Each
Party hereby acknowledges that it does not intend to violate any public policy,
statutory or common laws, rules, regulations, treaty or decision of any
government agency or executive body thereof of any country or community or
association of countries.  Should one or more provisions of this
Agreement be or become invalid, the Parties agree that it is their intent that
the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in effect, and shall substitute,
by mutual consent, valid provisions for such invalid provisions which valid
provisions in their economic effect are sufficiently similar to the invalid
provisions that it can be reasonably assumed that the Parties would have entered
into this Agreement with such valid provisions.

       

      6.8 Headings.  Section headings
contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not
in any way affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

       

      6.9 Further
Assurances.  Each Party agrees to take or cause to be taken
such further actions, and to execute, deliver and file or cause to be executed,
delivered and filed such further documents and instruments, and to obtain such
consents, as may be reasonably required or requested in order to effectuate
fully the purposes, terms and conditions of this Agreement.

       

      6.10 Execution.  This
Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be
deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same
instrument.
